The Fault lies here!!

The earth shook with great magnitude & all the people looked in awe.All their dreams smashed to a million pieces.Do human bonds grow strong when a fault line emerges in the earth!
Is it vital that people perish for us to truly understand and appretiate the real value of life.
I see the devastation that hit the multitudes as they stood prepared as always but amazed at the sheer strength with which their homes fell.
But hope took shape and from the cracks in the earth emerge new sprouts that will rebuild this civilisation that has seen too many a quake & the wrath of human hands that fried the souls a long time ago a plume of smoke & a mushroom cloud whose fear still lingers in feeble minds!

We didnt start the fire!

The Flaming Inferno;the world watches a small shanty part of a posh locale burns to a cinder.
The source of the fire remains a mystery will this Phoenix rise from these ashes or just mere glimpses of a distant memory prevail.
The flames rose high an vortex emerged as though the flames drilled a hole into the very core of the earth.
The earth began to spew pseudo magma that scorched not just the earth but also the hearts of those that dwelled there.
Their hopes lay waste in the ashes that remain.
How can a Castle of Dreams be built on the ruins of another.Every stone lay testament to lives lived and days spent in anguish and in joy.
How long will these cries be subdued;those shrieking souls seek answers.
Answers that they will someday find which manifest themselves in the form of a humble abode not here but elsewhere maybe a small Paradise that we all call home!

Almost prophetic!

How i found my self lost at the crossroads & this time for real.The fun part is that i wasn't alone at that juncture we all stood lost together;separated from the rest of the pack.
These ravenous wolves are on the prowl for food.But it was truly worth it good authentic native cuisine; to some though it seems foreign for me its home away from home.
We gorged on wholesome home cooked meals and feasted away to glory however it was time to head back home.
This primitive nature exists in all of us the predator within is always on the prowl.The need to feed is one of the most basic of all insticts imbibed in us.
Though the things we devour vary from the physical to the meta-physical food for the soul.
Does the soul truly crave chicken like the divine being depicted in motion picture The Fifth Element or is the setting for this three course meal already programmed into us.
Whatever the case may be the nourishment is required on a regular basis & we must heed the signs and do so for growth in body mind and soul!Bon appetit!

At the Crossroads-All roads lead to Rome!

Once in a while we all end up at the crossroads;which path should one choose one on the left or the right.
At times i  too wonder would my life be any different from the one i am living had i chosen the other path.
Or no matter what one does whichever path one chooses they land up in the same place they're meant to be come what may.
Maybe the two paths of the crossroads converge to meet a single road way ahead.
Its only  matter of perspective as i look ahead i see two options however upon completion of the journey i can look back and say for certain the journey may have been different but the destination is the same.

Tis all part of a grand design;the people i meet and the impact i make on their lives and them on mine.

The course a river takes may be a straight one or it may meander for miles but finally it traverses a path into the deep blue ocean.
Same can be said about life expectancy & the longevity of life the ones who complain not make a straight journey to the sea as for the cranky ones who expect more from life;severe blows are dealt to them along the way which changes the courses of their lives causing to meander & live somewhat fuller yet longer lives since they expected more they got more than they bargained for.
So the next time life deals you a blow and causes you to waver you can be sure you will be back on course in no time so just go with the flow!

From Slavery to Freedom!!

Their shackles lie broken as they march towards freedom.......
Egypt the land ruled by Pharaohs has a new age successor who carries their legacy on,but as those old enslaved souls were led into freedom to a Land of Milk & Honey not so long ago;So were todays children led to a new Zion.
The spark that enkindled a single nation has now the entire continent engulfed.The oppressors fall one by one Like a house of cards they all come crashing down.A bitter fate awaits them the revolution has begun.
It began in Africa and the world shall learn from it & see how the ones that shape the planet shall be you & me.

The City i call home!!The Good Bay!!!

The road leads to a place where solace lies........
Meandering through the city streets busy bodies run in unision they function like corpuscles in a giant blood vessel!
The flow of people in these arteries & veins seems so continuous and almost synonymous to actual blood cells!
Blood cells of every nature red & white;citizens too mimic the same nature of cells.Buzzing to & fro fighting for recognition;fighting for space!
Each soul longs to be heard here.I see one of every kind every color & race!I see a smile;a contagious smile that travels from face to face!
This city needs joy; as a sword had slashed its skin not so long ago; however not a scar remains testament to that wound!
That wound which festers not begins to heal;all now see the city take heart & are as strong as can be.
Many lay slain at the reapers behest but the reaper too must pay the price.At his demise the city folk throw a glorious fest!
The reaper though a foot-soldier he be his masters plot another carnage for near future to see!
But when that time comes we know not;for we withstand the tempest that the plotters plot.We stand our ground as we all unite;take up our swords & put up a fight!!!

The Return home!!

This journey was a short trip through time,met the custodians of faith who shaped us into the civil human beings that we are today!The lack of high school walls had changed the entire environment;when i look back i realise it was the authority bestowed upon them that separated us;however the outside world brings us all together on the same platform & by the looks of it we aren't so different after all!!
The chilly air of the hinterland fills my lungs; far from home i find a new home amongst strangers!We all look lost like sheep looking for answers!!Our quest for answers had led us this place; but do we really need to travel this far to get answers!!In silence an inner voice speaks "The Answer it says lies neither here nor there;The Answer lies within us"
The journey into the soul to get an affirmation about answers you already know may take you from place to place but the answer my friend is not blowing in the wind its standing right there where you began your journey from!!!!

The journey today is quite a literal one as this Pilgrim Progesses on a path long tread upon by young and old!Peaceful Nasik thou art the Prague of the East!!A garland of flowers adorns your neck ;its fragrance offering hope to one and all!The hospitality of an old friend brings back good old memories;that take you back in time!!This Time traveller however does not need a worm hole to transport him through the time and space continuum all it takes is a sojourn in a foreign land & a fellow traveller you met along the way a long long time ago!!

The Journey Begins....

The first step always seems like the most difficult one;that small leap of faith that leads you in a direction that will lead you in a path that maybe right or wrong!Nonetheless the choices we make are often the ones that shape our future and those of the ones around us!With this thought in mind i begin this journey into the unknown come join me on my quest for Wisdom!!!
